By WATGUNLOW
Built in the days before the bridge, this elegant lady addressed the harbour and the approach by boat. We were asked to help bring the now more commonly approached street side up to scratch. As beauty is more than skin deep we responded by giving her a new heart in the form of a gorgeous open kitchen, a new family sunroom for quite moments and opened up the interior to a new north facing deck. Now she’s beautiful no matter which way you look.
At WATGUNLOW, we think great architecture is founded on the relationship between architect and client. Our clients are generally passionate about their environment and want help to create something truely personal. We listen carefully, draw on our imagination, experience and together we create considered, sustainable, exciting projects.
We welcome the opportunity to hear your story and join your journey.
